As @mstr2 said, I think the data is always converted to CF_UNICODETEXT. If it wasn't there should have been more visible problems, as the current code always assumes wide chars.

So I just need to know how much we should change within this ticket: Just removing CF_TEXT from here, or also removing flavors from create_mime_stuff().
